St Vincent de Paul Society Christmas Appeal 2015

Spring term each year has, as its fund raising focus, the Christmas Appeal for the St Vincent de Paul Society. We are starting the appeal earlier this year due to the tight timeline given to us by the Society. We will, however, continue to take donations right up to the last few days of school this term but will need to give the Society some of our donations before December and Advent starts.

There are two main ways to donate again this year.

• each HTG and class in Junior school has been given a family to donate to. We would appreciate a Christmas theme with students being able to select an item to bring in from a list which has been provided to each HTG/class. Items must be non perishable. Coles vouchers can also be donated.
• we will have a Christmas tree set up in the foyer from 31 November. There will be tags on the tree with the description of a person for whom you may like to buy a present. Please bring in the item (unwrapped) and place it under the tree at any time during the day. Tags will be available at reception from Friday 20 November.

Thank you in advance for your support of this important charity and our focus on helping families who rely on the Society to give them a happy and bright Christmas.
